[nfbcs] Google is taking over my PC!

[Tracy Carcione]

Help!  Google is taking over!
Well OK, not totally, but still...as of a couple days ago, whenever I open
Internet Explorer, Google comes up as my home page.  And it's not even
regular Google, because, when I put something in to search for, and the
links come up, I can't actually choose any of them.
I went to Internet Options and selected blank as my homepage, which is
what I want, and what it's been for a long time.  I uninstalled something
called Google AFE. I've tried to find if there's a file called "blank"
that might have gotten taken over somehow, but I don't find one.
How can I get IE to open with my blank homepage, like it always used to
do?  And where is this darned Google page coming from?

My husband also uses this PC, and Goodness knows what he may have clicked
on by accident, but I should still be able to reset it.
Sure hope some of you smart people have some ideas.  I feel like Big
Brother is breathing down my neck.
